Public bug reported:
Binary package hint: upstart
Hello,
The -F option of the /sbin/shutdown command is useful: it allows you to
force the operating system to check all partitions (fsck) at the next
reboot.
In Ubuntu 6.10, this option has disappeared !
The command "shutdown -rF now" reboots the system, but does not force
the checking of the filesystems. Also, the -F option is no longer in the
shutdown manpage.
It appears the -F option was still there in Ubuntu 6.06.
As an aside, since Ubuntu is supposed to be based on Debian GNU/Linux,
shutdown does have the -F flag in both Debian 3.1 (sarge) and Debian 4.0
(etch).
So, where did -F go ?
